Cultural Anxiety

Four brilliant essays by the author of "Hermes and His Children" hailing the elemental force of the irrational in a world that is all too often 'explained' and 'understood': - Moon Madness-Titanic Love - Cultural Anxiety - Reflections on the Duende - Consciousness of Failure. López-Pedraza passionately urges us to acknowledge our roots in the soul and our debt to the unknowable.
